VOICE ACTING – Advanced Narration Techniques: Medical and Technical
One of the greatest rewards in medical narration is repeat business. Once a client finds a talent who can confidently and competently rise to the challenge, s/he usually comes back time and time again. That’s because even seasoned voice actors and actresses—not to mention some prominent coaches—do not do a very good job with medical narration!
Why? Perhaps because they focus too much on pronouncing difficult terminology correctly. Sure, pronunciation can literally be a mouthful, but that’s easy to remedy. The real challenge in medical narration is telling the story. And for good reason. In many medical narrations the terminology is so difficult, and the subject so foreign, even the narrator can’t see the story! That’s where my medical narration training comes in. I teach you how to tell the story—even if you don’t understand it—and how to keep the words from getting in the way.
